Hello,

I wonder if it is possible to add 2 checkbox and 1 button on the script editor find dialog.

1. Use Case-Sensitive (will search the given word in case-sensitive)

2. Do not use wildcards (this will search for the given word and not for wildcard word as manually search now)

3. Add an "Count" button down the "Find Text" button so when someone click on it to display how many items are exist before starting the find.

- Thanks!

I guess many people would like to see a "Search using RegEx Pattern" too.

I just tried it, the search box does not accept wildcard, *test* looks for the plain text "*test*", so that box might be "use wildcard" and like mentioned above, one more for "use regex"

The count button would just be a little text element well placed with the number of match

Starting from the last and working backwards:

As wims mentioned, the 'matches found' should be a well placed text box instead.

Now for the search options:
Currently, the way searching works is that the input text is treated, for all intents and purposes, as though its wrapped in *'s: *example*. Equating to it matching ANY occurrence of the word, regardless of case.

What I'd like to see is the following options:
  • Match any occurrence (radio): Uses the current search methodology
  • Match whole words only (radio): matches at spaces/newlines
  • Wildcard Match (radio): Wildcard match
  • Regex Match (radio): Regex match; implied global switch.
  • Case Sensitive (Check Box)
